Classical Japanese Ju-Jutsu included leglocks as well as armlocks and chokes. The details of how the technique were applied were a little different however…

Alex ties up with his opponent, gripping pressure points at the elbow and in the neck. |
 |
Alex throws his opponent to the floor and maintains control over him. |
 |
Alex parries his opponent’s kick with a circular clockwise sweep of his right arm. |
 |
Alex circles his arm and traps the attacker’s leg in his right armpit. |
 |
Alex grabs his own forearm with his left hand and leans back, locking his knees tightly around the opponent’s right knee. |
 |
Leglock (known as Ashi Zaru) detail – this leglock is applied to a pressure point at mid-calf, by grinding the forearm backwards and upwards into the leg. |
 |
Alex kicks his right leg upwards… |
 |
He now drops a heel strike into his opponent’s groin to finish the encounter. |
